EPISODE 8

LI HUO couldn't get old Wang out of his mind. ''Deep in thought, he left he room and walked outside, he felt there is something fishy about the said man that he could not pin point!. Still feeling curious he decide to ask jian hun what he felt about old Wang.

MASTER don't you get any odd feeling from old Wang? he asked. Jian hun was flustered! but he was glad Li Huo couldn't see his face at the moment , So he huff and replied, ''what is there to feel about an old man who's nearing the end of his life?''. LI huo was shocked! he didn't expect such reply from Jian hun.

''DID you bear a grudge against him?''. Why would you say such about him the innocent man. ''Jian scoffed at the idea of Li Huo referring to old wang as an innocent man''. but he said nothing. Li huo realized jian hun does not want to continue the conversation so he decide to let go. Soon after that he heard footsteps approaching him, he looked back and saw his father along with old Wang coming closer to where he was.

HUO LIANG woke the disciples up and they all start getting ready to continue their journey, when he noticed LI huo was not in the room, He asked the other disciples if any of the had seen LI huo and they all gave a negative nod. he gave his instructions to the disciples asking them to pack up and meet him outside.

HUO LIANG was worried about Li huo, to him his son just recovered from an injury he shouldn't be moving around so soon, on his way to go check where Li huo is. he saw old wang coming out of the room Li huo was treated in yesterday and he bow to him, and also express his appreciation.

I thought we would not be able to meet you before we leave, I have dropped the treatment fee where you asked me to, thank you for giving us shelter, '' I really hope we would be able to repay you for your help''. Huo LIang said to old Wang.

It's okay, It's okay, I am glad i was able to help. old Wang said with a smile while rubbing his beards. '' where is your son i would like to have a word with him before you all proceed with your journey, old wang said to huo Liang.

He was not in the inn. '' I was hoping he would be outside.''

Let's walk together then, old wang said to Huo Liang.

please... Huo liang replied.

They both walked outside and found Li Huo sitting on the lawn outside. ''you are yet to fully recover, you should have gotten enough rest before we begin our journey'', What are you doing outside. Huo Liang said to Li Huo as they got closer to where he was sitting.

LI HUO who turned back, having heard footsteps approaching him smile, then he stood up and bow in greetings to both his father and old Wang. ''I feel refreshed this morning after the night rest father''. Rest assured father i am okay. then he faced old Wang and kowtow, '' thank you very much for saving my life, i promise to repay you someday''. I hope we meet again.

Old Wang laughed and he replied, '' We would definitely meet again, and i hope by then you would be stronger

than this''.  And also the next time we meet i hope you would stop calling a servant your master. he laughed once again and he left both the father and son feeling puzzled.

Father and son was still thinking of what the old man meant when Tang wei came to inform them that they are done packing and it's time to leave. Putting old wang's word aside they decide to continue their journey.

How's Wu Yuan?, did the physician say he will recover?, Mo Chen asked.

HUO LIANG was feeling uncomfortable he couldn't shake off the feeling off dread that had come upon him, and he doesn't understand why he was feeling this way.

LI huo noticed his father mood and he couldn't help but ask what's making his father give such reaction. Father I hope you are feeling okay?, should we cancel the journey and go back home?.

I'm fine, master chan is already expecting us, so let's not disappoint, Huo Liang replied with a smile to dismiss his son's worry.
